Chalone’s medium deep ruby-colored 2001 Pinot Noir Estate offers a big, spicy, earthy bouquet of compost, root vegetables, beets, and cherries. The outstanding aromas are followed by mid-eighty point flavors. Medium-bodied, with a short, compact finish, it should be consumed over the next 3-5 years. Tel. (707) 254-4200; Fax (707) 254-4203
